Drs Chris and Xand van Tulleken investigate the science of exercise and the dangers of inactivity. Is modern exercise a wellness cult? Or is it a vital cure for a world that's struggling with ill health and stuck on the sofa? Most of us might like to get a bit fitter, but how easy is it to actually start exercising and give up sedentary habits? In this series Drs Chris and Xand van Tulleken examine exercise and how best to do it. How much should we be doing? How does it help our bodies? And how does our surrounding environment stand in the way of us getting fitter? Chris is challenged to examine his scepticism towards exercise. Similarly, Xand is asked to look at his new-found exercise evangelism and see what he is really running from. Recently Xand has discovered the joys of physical activity. He's running, cycling, heading to the gym and playing ping pong like never before. It's been a real transformation and a way to keep on top of things after years of unhealthy living. His twin brother Chris, on the other hand, is really feeling the aches and pains of middle age. With a busy job and a young family, he has precious little spare time for exercise. After a very active period in his 20s and 30s, Chris is now embracing his ‘Dad bod' and sliding into a creaky middle age. Xand wants to help him turn things around. Can he do it? The box set is available now on BBC Sounds.

Welcome to this episode of 20/20 Money! My guests on today's show are two more of my favorite people in the optometry space: Drs. Chris Wolfe and Kyle Klute. Although, this is a bit of a different episode in that they're not only guests on the show…they're guest hosting the show! This is another 20/20 Money Takeover and basically a response to the first takeover episode I release with Drs. Jennifer Stewart and Jeremy Ciano (link here). Kyle was kind enough to reach out to me after the original takeover episode aired and shared some perspectives and opinions on the show and, in true transparency, included Jeremy and Jennifer on the message thread. There was a lot of great convos had and I thought that having Kyle and Chris on the show to talk about “the response” to the first takeover was a great idea. What neither of the duos know, though, is that I already have an idea for a 3rd episode: getting the four of them together on a virtual roundtable and just hitting record. No agenda. No topics. No script. Not even really a time limit. Just the four of them and a couple of microphones. It'll be like a battle royale, optometry-podcast style. Long time listeners will know that my introductions usually give you a bit of an insight into the topics that'll be discussed on this show. Not this one. Again, just like the first one, I'm listening to it for the first time right alongside you. I'm excited to hear what they talked about and will be curious to hear your feedback (if you're so inclined). If you do have feedback for the show (on this episode or any other episodes), you can always email the show at podcast@integratedpwm.com. As a reminder, you can get all the information discussed in today's conversation by visiting our website at integratedpwm.com and clicking on the Learning Center. While there, be sure to subscribe to our monthly “planning life on purpose” newsletter that's filled with tips and ideas to help you plan your life on purpose. You can also set up a Triage conversation to learn a little bit more about how we serve in the capacity of a personal and professional CFO: helping OD practice owners around the country reduce their tax bill, proactively manage cash flow, and make prudent investment decisions both in and out of their practice to ultimately help them live their best life on purpose.

There have been a lot of book about Jesus and movies, or Jesus and music, but have we ever stopped to ask questions about the engagement between the arts and the Spirit? In this episode, Drs. Chris Green and Robby Waddell join Aaron to discuss reflecting on the Spirit through the arts. We as the church might be surprised to find what we both understand about culture and about the Spirit when we find where the Spirit is moving within the arts.

Drs Chris and Xand van Tulleken explore if people can change and how they do it. How much of our personality is genetic destiny and how much are we shaped by the world around us? All eight episodes of A Thorough Examination with Drs Chris and Xand - Can I Change? are available now. Listen on BBC Sounds. A Loftus Media and van Tulleken Brothers Ltd production for BBC Radio 4
Chris and Xand are doctors, scientists and identical twins. Well, not quite identical. Xand is 20kg heavier, clinically obese, and has a Covid induced heart condition. Chris believes that the reason Xand is overweight is the same reason that most of us in the UK are overweight - Ultra Processed Food or UPF. It's the main thing that we now eat and feed to our children, but most of us have never heard of it. It's addictive, highly profitable and the main cause of the global obesity pandemic. It's destroying our bodies, our brains and the environment. In this series, recorded during the first coronavirus lockdown of 2020, Chris wants to help his brother quit UPF and get his health back. So, he has a plan. In an attempt to turn Xand's life around, Chris persuades his brother to eat a diet comprising 80% Ultra-processed food while learning about every aspect of it. By doing this, Chris tests two theories - that Xand is addicted to UPF, and that eating more of the stuff while learning about it, will help him quit. Chris believes that the science shows UPF is addictive and harmful to the body, not least by driving excess consumption and weight gain. By speaking with the world's leading experts on obesity and nutrition, Xand will learn what UPF is made of, how it's produced, whether it's addictive, what it does to the human brain and body and how it is the number one force driving global obesity. In episode 1 - How did we get so different? - Chris and Xand speak to Cambridge University geneticist Dr Giles Yeo to begin to understand the origins of Xand's (and everyone else's) size, learning about the role our food environments play in our susceptibility to UPF. How much is destiny, how much might we be able to control?

In episode 2 – UPF is not food - Chris and Xand meet Professor of Chemistry Andrea Sella to try to understand some of the more complex ingredients in Ultra Processed Food and the lies they tell us about when we are full and satisfied. Dr Fernanda Rauber was on the team who "discovered" UPF, and explains why it exists and that perhaps we are thinking about it in the wrong way - that it's not food, it's an industrial formulation of chemicals.

In episode three - How to change? Let it go… - Chris and Xand have an emotional conversation about why this project is important and hard for both of them to undertake. They speak separately to Alasdair Cant, a behaviour change expert, about how we decide to become different people. Alasdair also speaks to Chris about how he, like many family members, may be holding Xand back from making the necessary changes in his life to get healthier.

In episode four - Building an ultra-processed body - Xand starts the diet, eating 80% UPF while continuing to learn about it. Chris thinks the diet will work because he's done it, subsisting on a junk food diet for four weeks while investigating the causes of childhood obesity in a BBC TV documentary. In order to understand the direct effect UPF is having on his body - appetite, hormones and weight - Xand speaks to obesity expert, Dr Janine Makaronidis from University College London. Xand also interviews Dr Kevin Hall from the National Institute of Health in the US about his ground-breaking research into the consumption of UPF. Kevin was the first scientist to prove that UPF causes weight gain.

Xand also speaks to Dr Nicole Avena, a food addiction neurologist, about how our brains are affected by UPF in relation to other addictive behaviour. Both Chris and Xand go on to speak to sensory expert, Professor Barry Smith from the University of London, about how all of our senses are targeted by companies when we consume their UPF products.

In episode 6 - Building an ultra processed world – finishing the experiment, Xand explains that he has had a ‘conversion experience'. Recognising the dangers of UPF, not only to his own health and wellbeing, but to the health and wellbeing of society, he concludes that he no longer has any desire to eat UPF. Chris and Xand talk to the American Academic and former professor of nutrition, food studies and public health at New York University, Marion Nestle, who explains how UPF is not just a public health issue, it's an environmental disaster. Marion considers and recommends what needs to be done to combat the rocketing levels of obesity – especially in children - while ensuring sustainable healthy food production.

It's been a year since Chris van Tulleken set his twin brother, Xand, a challenge to help him quit his addiction to junk food. Xand had to eat an 80% ultra-processed food (UPF) diet while learning about its health impact. It worked and by the end Xand rejected all those foods he'd previously adored, including his beloved Chinese dumplings. The experiment had an aversion effect, just as Chris had hoped. But something else happened during the experiment, Chris also had a conversion experience. A podcast about food addiction transformed into a podcast about the twins' relationship and how best to help someone you love. In this episode, the twins reflect on their conversion experiences – are they eating better and more importantly, are they getting on better? Chris speaks to obesity expert Professor Rachel Batterham who tells him how the scientific discourse about UPF has developed since the end of series 1. And the twins go to see philosopher Barry Smith whose professional life has been affected by the twins' experiment and he tells them why he's now refusing to work with major food companies as a sensory consultant. When Xand pops round for tea one evening, Chris's five-year-old daughter shares some home truths about her dad and uncle's relationship and it prompts the twins to consider what else they need to improve in their lives.

Drs Chris and Xand van Tulleken were born 7 minutes apart but don't know who is the oldest... As older brothers to 'Bratty' , the trio enjoyed an idyllic childhood, with an "anarchic", fun-loving dad and a perfectly complementary mum who worked hard to provide for the family and instilled a work ethic in the three boys. As teens the twins decided to become doctors and cooperated beautifully to study for their medical school interviews. It was - by their own admission - a rare episode in a relationship which can otherwise be dogged by squabbles and rows. And yet the pair *clearly* adore each other and a recent near-death experience highlighted how dependent they are on each other. Their new podcast series is about food and weight, which obsesses them both.... See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Welcome to 'A Thorough Examination with Drs Chris and Xand'. The first series is "Addicted to Food", it's specifically about the growing global addiction to ultra processed food aka UPF. Chris thinks UPF is driving Xand's (and everyone else's) weight problem. So he proposes a simple experiment - that Xand goes on a final week long UPF binge whilst interviewing the world's leading experts on addiction, food, nutrition and weight. It's the nutritional equivalent of smoking 100 cigarettes whilst going on a quit smoking course. Simple right? Well it turns out to be far stranger and more emotional than either of them ever imagined...An See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

SHOW NOTES: Journal Article 1: "Diagnosis of Pulmonary Embolism with d-Dimer Adjusted to Clinical Probability" PEs and DVTs can be elusive. There are rising numbers of chest pulmonary CTAs being done with lower yields. These can result in increased cost and health risks. In this study, the adjusted d-dimer was looked at to see if the number of CTs being ordered can be reduced. The Wells criteria was used to place patients into low, moderate or high clinical pretest probability for venous thromboembolism of VTE. In the podcast, "clinical pretest probability" is referred to as risk. Of the entire 2000 patients enrolled, the diagnosis of VTEW was only made in 7%. Participants that qualified as low risk numbered 1742 and 1200 of these had d-dimer less than 1000. No VTWE was found in these patients for the next 90 days. For those with a d-dimer between 500 and 999, none had a VTE at 90 days. In moderate-risk groups with d-dimer less than 500, none had VTE at 90 days. Combining low-risk patients with a d-dimer less than 1000, non of these patients had evidence of VTE at 90 days. Even in the 467 patients with a d-dimer greater than 1000, only 87 had a VTE. Moderate- or high-risk patients are not applicable for this study. According to the article, if the d-dimer is greater than 1000, and the patient is low-risk, there was a 20% incidence of VTE. While it is an impressive study, it is one peice of data and should not replace clinical gestalt and decision making when truly concerned about the presence of VTE. Journal Article 2: "Bedtime Hypertension Treatment Improves Cardiovascular Risk Reduction: The Hygia Chronotherapy Trial" HTN is difficult to manage in many patients. This was a large study out of Spain of approximately twenty thousand patients. Patients were selected to take their medication either in the AM or nighttime and 48-hour blood pressure monitoring was performed. Patients were followed for 6 years. Night time dosed patients had significantly lower cardiovascular event rates than the daytime group, as well as better blood pressure management. There is little evidence to not advise nighttime antihypertensive dosing for patients, unless there would be compliance concerns. Medications that would not be tolerated, or specific medications, like diuretics, that can disrupt sleep. This was an impressive study that demonstrates a rather simple maneuver to effect a remarkable change in cardiovascular risk. Bear in mind, diet and lifestyle may also contribute to the results, but those were not assessed in this study. Journal Article 3: "Early or Delayed Cardioversion in Recent-Onset Atrial Fibrillation" A-Fib is a common presentation in primary care practice and in Emergency Departments. In this study of early cardioversion strategy vs delayed, 437 patients, aged 18 and above, were reviewed. Necessary criteria included A-fib bit less than 36-hours and hemodynamic stability. The conclusion was that neither strategy delayed or early cardioversion was an inferior approach. A large number of patients in this study spontaneously converted to normal sinus rhythm without demonstrating higher rates of stroke. However, this study was not powered to assess risk of long-term stroke, and this remains unknown. Though based on other studies referenced today, it's known that a patient cardioverted after 12-hours of A-fib has an increased risk of stroke. Psychologically, being in A-fib can be disturbing for the individual, and remaining in A-fib is not always desirable from the patient perspective. There are also potential logistical and cost considerations with delayed approach including numerous repeat clinics and ER visits for a small number of patients. Journal Article 4: "Short-term Use of Oral Corticosteroids and Related Harms Among Adults in the United States: Population-based Cohort Study" An impressive review of three hundred thousand patients was performed. Corticosteroids were given for mostly musculoskeletal, respiratory and allergic issues. Sepsis, VTE and fracture were monitored for over a 90-day time period and statistically significant higher rates of all of these were noted. Bear in mind, this was a study without true placebo, and patients essentially compared their experience on steroids to their experience not on steroids. It should probably be followed up with a prospective trial to help further validate these concerning findings. Still, this study only looked at 3 different complications and the numbers here are pretty striking, with 205 of adults receiving steroids. There are a number of studies which have shown no evidence of benefit in the use of steroids for a variety of indications, including conditions, such as urticaria and even anaphylaxis. Journal Article 5: "No Association Between MRI Changes In The Lumbar Sone and Intensity of Pain, Quality of Life, Depressive and Anxiety Symptoms in Patients With Low Back Pain" In this study, out of Poland, patients were referred for a lumbar spine MRI by neurologists, surgeons or other specialists, but not by primary care. These MRIs were graded in the study based on criteria derived from the reading radiologists. The endpoint of the study was to compare the severity of MRI findings with the patient's self-assessment and scoring of pain, quality of life, etc. The study ultimately showed there was no correlation. However, age and BMI, and total MRI scores did correlate. Physically active patients had better scores. Learning new ways of coping with pain and helping our patients with this reality can equal a more efficient use of time and money. Per this study, medications or a reassuring MRI, does not correlate to resolution of pain. Of course, MRIs are often indicated in the setting of significant neurologic findings and emergencies, but outside of those settings, some patients may not be convinced that an MRI is not necessary. Using articles like this one can assist to better counsel patients and reduce unnecessary MRIs. Journal Article 6: "Contrast Associated Acute Kidney Injury Is A Myth: Yes" IV contract is often blamed for acute kidney injury, or AKI. It turns out, like many time honored beliefs in medicine, this is not likely the case. While attempting to research and write a paper on this subject, the investigators quickly discovered that ample data already exists that shows CIN or contrast induced nephropathy, appears to be more a myth than truth. One senior author of this paper demonstrated in a pool of thousands of patients in two other separate studies that there's no association between contrast and AKI. Another investigator who is a cardiologist demonstrated actually less incidence of AKI in a cohort of patients. So, while personal clinical experience and Gestalt should not be ignored, we also must maintain a desire to debunk dogma that is unfounded time and again in the scientific literature. With regard to AKI from IV contrast, maybe there will be a prospective randomized trial looking at this, but there seems to be a preponderance of evidence already to suggest it may not be necessary.
